Sussex Police have released a statement from Julian's mother, Molly Gardner and sister, Anna Murphy.

"Those criminals now convicted appear to have shown no remorse for their actions. All those present that night bear responsibility and must live with Julian's death on their conscience forever.

"They know that they will eventually be released from their sentence. However, we as Julian's family will never be released from our sorrow.

"Our Julian was above all a good and decent man who worked hard all his life. Before he had the opportunity to sit back and enjoy the results of his lifetime's work, these men...felt they had the right to steal all that Julian had worked for but succeeded only in robbing him of his life."

Four men will be sentenced later for the manslaughter of a farmer at his home in east Sussex. Julian Gardner died after the burglary at his farm in Robertsbridge in October 2010. Malcolm Shaw has been finding out more.

Speaking in Malcolm Shaw's report was the Rev Jack Lusted, the vicar of Robertsbridge and Salehurst, Julian's mother, Molly Gardner, speaking in 2010 and Peter Thompson from the Game and Wildlife Conservation Trust.
